Something like this? <code> ;; Add (show-face-mode (" `" *show-face-mode-cur-face* "`")) to mode-line-format (defvar *show-face-mode-cur-face* nil) (defun update-current-face () (setq *show-face-mode-cur-face* (and (get-char-property (point) 'face) (symbol-name (get-char-property (point) 'face))))) (defvar show-face-mode) ;; silence the byte compiler (define-minor-mode show-face-mode "Just puts face info in the mode-line" nil "" nil :global t ;; called every time it turns on or off, after toggling the mode (if show-face-mode (add-hook 'post-command-hook (function update-current-face)) (remove-hook 'post-command-hook (function update-current-face)))) </code> What exactly do you mean by show-face-mode?

;; Add (show-face-mode (" `" *show-face-mode-cur-face* "`")) to mode-line-format
(defvar *show-face-mode-cur-face* nil)

Also another way I figure this out is use what-cursor-position, bound to C-x =. It is necessary to prefix this command with a C-u argument to get the extra information. The latter includes what faces are used on that character. This feature seems to be in 22.3.

It's definitely an improvement over list-faces-display, but I guess I would prefer a show-face-mode. Wouldn't that be easier those of us tweaking our color theme every time a new mode has it's own colors? This seems like it’s a halfway solution.
